Its not rocket science,if you can pull a loaded round and
weigh the charge can tell you if it isand how much it is over any listed weights in the manual.Id deff check it ever for peace of mind,then depending on results email the manufacturer or at least stop using the ammo all together.But by all means you can not weigh it and keep shooting it,best if luck.

Weighing the powder charge has nothing to do with science, it is a total waste of time, without knowing exactly what powder you are weighing. You can't compare the charge weight to any data, and determine anything, without knowing which powder you are dealing with. A quick look at the Nosler data for 180gr bullets, in the 300wby, shows the maximum charge weight varies by 14.5gr depending on the specific powder.
